Cool Pricing on a K-series swap

Just a curious question.

Around how much should a JDM K-series into an EK cost including engine, mounts, wireing, and any other custom fabing needed.

Really don't have the cash for this but i am just curious about it seeing how this has allways been in the back of my mind.

I made a list for a k20/k24 build it totaled $5662.50 without rsx shifter cables, radiator, clutch, flywheel, misc. stuff and of course labor.

alone its gonna be that cost for the motor if your going with the jdm k20a type r...... without all the other parts / welding / lot of fab work close to 10000 if not little more. pm some of the shop owners ask how much for the swap.

There is no welding to get it put in an EK. But it really depends who is doing the work and what parts you decide to get because there are a lot of parts that you don't have to get.

ECU, Axles, Motor & Tranny & Labor are the most expensive!
